Sr Software Engineer

About the Role

The Security Foundations Engineering (SFE) team with our client builds the foundational platforms that operationalize security, privacy, and data governance across the company. This includes systems that power third-party risk management, access controls, and secure data sharing at scale.

We are seeking a senior, highly self-directed Full Stack Engineer to lead development of the Control Center — our Client's internal platform for third-party risk management and data governance. This is a production-critical system (not an MVP) that transforms an existing data catalog into an actionable, audit-ready operational tool.

You’ll be the primary frontend owner on a backend-heavy team, responsible for designing and building complex, real-time interfaces while partnering closely with Security, Privacy, and Infrastructure teams.
What You’ll Do

Own and build the Control Center — a unified portal for third-party data governance and vendor risk management

Design and develop scalable React-based interfaces including:

Exception surfacing and triage workflows

Action queues and operational dashboards

Drill-down data visibility and reporting

Audit-ready reporting experiences

Build and integrate backend services (REST/GraphQL) that power frontend workflows

Integrate with downstream systems such as access controls and vendor offboarding workflows

Partner cross-functionally with Privacy, Security, and Infrastructure teams to define and implement data governance requirements

Ensure production-grade reliability through monitoring, observability, and performance optimization

Review, debug, and improve AI-generated code as part of an AI-first development environment (majority of codebase)

Contribute to system design decisions and ensure new components integrate cleanly into existing architecture

Basic Qualifications (Must-Have)

5+ years of frontend engineering experience with React (non-negotiable)

Strong experience building full stack applications (frontend + backend integration)

Deep understanding of React architecture, state management, and complex UI systems

Experience building production-grade applications at scale (reliability, monitoring, fault tolerance)

Proven ability to build operational tooling (dashboards, workflows, data-heavy UIs)

Experience working with APIs (REST or GraphQL) and backend systems

Strong debugging and code review skills, including reviewing large, AI-generated codebases

Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills across multiple teams

Ability to operate as a senior, self-directed engineer in a cross-functional environment

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with AI agent systems / LLM pipelines, including:

Evaluating model accuracy

Iterating on agent workflows

Handling large-scale prompt orchestration

Familiarity with AWS infrastructure (S3, RDS, IAM, Lambda)

Experience with Airflow DAGs or data pipeline orchestration

Backend experience in Python or similar languages

Experience building security, compliance, or risk management tools

Background working at large-scale tech companies (e.g., Google, Meta, Amazon)

Experience with consumer-facing applications (high bar for reliability and UX)

Technical Environment

Frontend: React (TypeScript preferred)

Backend: GraphQL (existing), Python (adjacent systems)
